Rare MWC MIL-TEC MKIV PVD Stainless Steel Military Pilots Chronograph - Ex Display Watch from a Trade Show in 2015 Most likely needs a new battery
RAN210824/2
This watch is brand new with the plastic still on the crystal and was a display watch from a trade show in 2015. The watch is not running but the issue is most likely to be a battery failure because the battery life is four and a half years and the watch is a 2014 model so 10 years old. This watch is probably the last new MTEC/MKIV/PV anywhere.

FACTORY DESCRIPTION
SKU Code: MTEC/MKIV/PV
The latest Mil-Tec MKIV in covert black PVD steel offers several improvements over its predecessor, the MKIII. While the MKIII featured a screw-down crown, the MKIV has an increased water resistance rating of 100 meters (10 atm or 330 ft). In addition to this, the MKIV includes higher visibility hands on the subsidiary dials, making them much easier to see during military, aviation, and day-to-day activities requiring precise timing.
Although specifically designed for military aircrews, this watch is also ideal for airline pilots, general aviation (GA) pilots, and marine applications.
The case size is 45mm, and the chronograph features a Swiss Ronda 5040.D movement with an extended battery life of 54 months. One of the key advantages of this movement is its use of the standard 395 battery, which is widely available at most watchmakers and jewelers due to its use in many high-quality quartz watches.
